Support Shahbaz Ali’s Cancer Battle

Shahbaz Ali's Story

Shahbaz Ali, a 49-year-old resident of Lahore, has been dealing with a lump in the right parotid region for the past 1.5 years. Recently, the swelling has rapidly increased, causing great concern. Seeking answers, Shahbaz underwent a fine needle aspiration cytology, which revealed clusters of atypical cells with large nuclei and prominent nucleoli. The diagnosis pointed towards the possibility of Mucoepidermoid Carcinoma or Salivary Duct Carcinoma, leaving Shahbaz in urgent need of treatment.

Living in a small two-room house with his wife and four children, Shahbaz’s financial situation presents an additional barrier. As a security guard, he earns a modest income of PKR 14,000 per month. With no other source of income, he shoulders the responsibility of providing for his family’s needs. Utility bills amount to PKR 700, while educational expenses for his children reach PKR 4,000. Daily expenses further strain their limited budget, leaving Shahbaz unable to afford the surgical expenses required for his treatment. Shahbaz’s situation is dire, and he faces a formidable challenge.

Shahbaz said it with teary eyes:

“I yearn for the chance to fight this illness and be there for my children as they grow. Please, help me overcome this obstacle and give me a fighting chance.”
